A generalized geometric mechanics theory for multi-curve-fold origami: vertex constrained universal configurations

Zhixuan Wen, Pengyu Lv, Fan Feng +1

Folding paper along curves leads to spatial structures that have curved surfaces meeting at spatial creases, defined as curve-fold origami. In this work, we provide an Eulerian fra…
